SSS.6.160 - PTR VENT 1 and the Savage Model 10 PC .308 (Free Version)

The PTR VENT 1 is a lightweight and highly advanced 30 caliber rifle silencer that exhibits extremely high sound signature suppression performance. The combination of performance observations noted in this test report demonstrate that the VENT 1 exhibits performance that far exceeds that of typical rifle silencers. The consistency of the measured signatures is also extremely notable. This iteration of Purposely Induced Porosity (PIP) technology in the silencer, along with other portions of its design, represent further 3D-printed advancement in the suppressed small arms state of practice.

In this review, the PTR VENT 1 performance metrics depend upon suppressing a supersonic centerfire rifle cartridge; no easy task. How would the silencer perform on your .308 deer rifle?

SSS.6.131 - PTR VENT 2 and the Heckler and Koch SP5 9x19mm Subgun (Free Version)

The PTR VENT 2 is a full size 9mm silencer that exhibits significantly high sound signature suppression performance and low backpressure. Although it is intended for use on submachineguns, at 8.5 ounces and 7.6 inches long with no mount, it is close in size to many full size 9mm pistol silencers. The performance of the Purposely Induced Porosity (PIP) technology in the silencer, along with other portions of its design, is notable and represents further 3D-printed advancement in the suppressed small arms state of practice.

In this review, the PTR VENT 2 performance metrics depend upon suppressing a subsonic centerfire pistol cartridge on a roller-delayed blowback submachinegun. How would the PTR VENT 2 perform on your 9mm pistol caliber carbine (PCC)?
